Yvelines: 300 migrants settle in the castle of Thiverval-Grignon. Some 300 African migrants, who came from Mayotte after having obtained asylum.
The town's 17th century castle was transformed into a migrant reception camp. Emergency reception is not the purpose of this exceptional site, deplores the town hall. The refugees are staying in the former student residences of the area which previously housed the AgroParisTech school, the same ones which had already welcomed hundreds of homeless people last year.
